Chapter 966 Ch 966: Heavenly Demon Palace
Four hours later, Ye Xiao arrived in front of a huge building. This building was so tall that it seemed to be impossible to reach the top.
Yes, the top of this building couldn't be seen at all. It seemed to have pierced past the clouds and was going beyond the sky.
This building seemed to extend more than a thousand meters. But there was only one entrance in this large building. This entrance alone seemed to have been made of an entire floor, of course, its width was not that much. The width of the entrance was about 200 meters. The Gate at the entrance seemed to be made of very rare material, giving off an icy aura.
Countless strange patterns were engraved on the gate which seemed to be squirming like living things. From time to time, silvery white light was flashed from the thin but straight crack in the middle of the gate which seemed to be dividing the gates into two parts.
But the entrance was not the main attraction of this building. The most eye-catching thing about this building was its architecture. Ye Xiao has never seen a single building like this in his entire life. Most importantly, in this huge, never-ending tall building, Ye Xiao couldn't see a single window which made him feel very strange.
Ye Xiao was looking above the gate where three words were engraved with countless ancient ruins, giving a people feeling as if they are looking at a dark and depthless abyss.
These words were: "Heavenly Demon Palace!"
For some reason, Ye Xiao felt that he has underestimated this race. It is because just the architects, buildings, and shrines he has seen here alone gave him a feeling of the single word "lavish".
The records he has found previously were enough to make people fight a war to obtain them. It is because just any single scripture, martial arts skill, or cultivation technique stored there could make an ordinary person cultivate to at least God Realm, of course, talent does matter.
After looking at the Heavenly Demon Palace, Ye Xiao immediately reevaluated his impression of the Heavenly Demon Race and put it even above the Ancient Race.
The ancient Race was the second most powerful race, only inferior to the Primordial Race.
If these three races would have appeared in the same era, Ye Xiao now believed that the Heavenly Demon Race would have definitely walked step to step with the Primordial Race.
Ye Xiao reevaluated the Heavenly Demon Race like this because of the God Domineering Crystal and the extraordinary Heavenly Demon Transformation Technique.
The God Domineeirng Crystal never said anything about the Primordial Race even when he obtained the Mark of Primordial. The Mark of Primordial, which is the sign of a person being a member of the Primordial Race, which is the pride of the Primordial Race, is something that Ye Xiao went through two trials to obtain.
Of course, he has been keeping the Mark of Primordial with him this entire time, waiting for a perfect moment to fuse with the Mark of Primordial and obtain the ability hidden within.
The Mark of Primordial in his hand belonged to the last Leader of the Primordial Race who sacrificed his own life to save the lives of the remaining elders. It was extremely powerful.
However, the God Domineering Crystal never said a single word about the Mark of Primordial.
But it reacted when he obtained the Heavenly Demon Transformation Technique and told him that this technique is very powerful and he should cultivate it, for this technique could help him achieve his final goal, which is to become a Divine God and Transcend.
Even the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique that he is cultivating currently could not let him break the limit of Heavens and become a Divine God.
But Heavenly Demon Transformation Technique could do this.
Ye Xiao could imagine just from this how powerful this technique must be.
What Ye Xiao could not understand was, if the Heavenly Demon Transformation Technique is really this powerful, then why did the Heavenly Demon Race was destroyed?
Why no one has ever broken the limit of the Heavens?
Anyway, this race was a mystery to Ye Xiao now. He believed that he would solve this mystery very soon as well.
.....
"What should I do?"
"How do I enter the Heavenly Demon Palace?"
Ye Xiao wanted to open the huge gate and enter the Heavenly Demon Palace, however, he could not find a way to open the door.
Ye Xiao tried many times, but he failed to open the door.
Finally, he decided to attack and destroy the door. Anyway, the Heavenly Demon Palace has long since been destroyed. No one would come and look for trouble with him even if he destroyed the door. And even if someone came, Ye Xiao was not afraid.
With this thought, Ye Xiao was ready to attack. He started circulating the True Essence inside his body and condensed them on his fist. At the same time, the aura of destruction also appeared on his body and the focus point of this destruction aura was his fist.
Milky-white energy swirl around his fist, but traces of grey dots could also be found floating in the milky-white energy.
After some time, when Ye Xiao felt like it is enough, he finally punched the gate.
"BOOM!"
Ye Xiao was like an ant in front of this giant door, however, when his fist landed, an explosive sound occurred and intense shockwaves seemingly filled with overwhelming strength swept over, sending Ye Xiao flying backward.
On the other hand, a huge, about two meters wide, fist-shaped hole appeared on the door. It appeared mainly because of the Law of Destruction that Ye Xiao used in this attack. The traces of the Law of Destruction could still be felt at the edges of the fist-shaped hole which was constantly spreading, making the hole larger and larger with each passing second.
However, the silvery white light suddenly flashed, forcing Ye Xiao to immediately close his eyes. But when he opened his eyes again, he was surprised to see that the effect of his destruction law has disappeared and the hole was recovering at a speed seen by the naked eye.
"F*ck!"
Ye Xiao didn't expect the huge door to easily buzz off the effect of his destruction law and start recovering.
When Ye Xiao felt closely, he was shocked to sense the Law of Creation that was helping the hole in the huge door recover quickly.
Without wasting more time, Ye Xiao immediately jumped inside the hole and appeared inside the building. And it was also the time when the hole become small enough to not let even a child enter. And soon the door recovered completely.
"My comprehension of the Law of Destruction is still not high!"
Ye Xiao sighed when he thought like this. His comprehension of Destruction Law was only 5%. He still needs years to comprehend the Destruction Law to 100%.
Comprehending Supreme Laws are really very difficult.
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and looked at the new environment in front of him. He was standing in a long corridor. There were many doors at the left and right walls of the corridors. These doors were also huge, but much shorter than the entrance to the building.
Most importantly, every door was guarded by huge stone statues holding stone spears in their hands. They wore full body armor and had their eyes closed. Although they were statues, Ye Xiao had a feeling if he tries to enter any room, the guards guarding the door of that room will come alive and attack him in order to stop him.
The entire corridor was filled with red light, making the environment here somewhat ghostly.
Ye Xiao does not fear them. He was just curious as to what is hidden on the other side of the door, and where the treasure wanted by the Destiny Dao Sect is hidden.
According to the Grand Elder of the Destiny Dao Sect, the treasure they want is located somewhere in the Heavenly Demon Palace. He just has to enter the Heavenly Demon Palace and obtain the treasure.
They told him that only a God who is the enemy of Heavenly Dao and whose fate can't be calculated by any means could obtain that treasure.
But that is the case in order to obtain "that" treasure.
If not for the Destruction Law, he would have to resort to another method in order to enter the Heavenly Demon Palace.
Ye Xiao doubted if they have ever entered the Heavenly Demon Palace before this or not.
How did the Destiny Dao Sect come to know about the condition to obtain the treasure that could help them fight the coming calamity? And if that treasure could really help in fighting against the calamity, why was the Heavenly Demon Race destroyed in the era-ending catastrophe?
There were many questions but not a single answer to satisfy his curiosity.
